"Unlike chapbooks or volumes of poetry where the poetry begins and ends with the poem, Kay Day's Poetry Break is a celebration of the literary form."—Joyce Dixon, Editor, Southern Scribe

"Original, entertaining, at times inspirational, the little volume of memorable poetry is very highly recommended."—Midwest Book Review

Lots of fine poems. I liked a great many—the sonnets at the book's start, like "The Reading Lesson," and the other poems afterwards, all of them well made, well crafted. "Dear G.", which was I believe the first I read and that remains on a second and third reading particularly fine...."Genealogy" and " At Fifteen,"...just a few that struck me. Day tells her stories well, vividly, always coherently—and there is a lovely sanity and goodheartedness that emerges in poem after poem.—Steve Kowit, author of In the Palm of Your Hand*
